Can I make an event information page display on the front page in Joomla? How? I'm sure it's a noobie question. Thanks in advance.

Hi jgregory,
You can create front end menu for doing same .Refer the docs here :  http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC33/Configuring+Front-end+Event+Info+and+Registration+in+Joomla!+Sites

Thanks Sushant. That's not quite what I'm looking for. I don't want a link on a menu; I want the event info page to show as an article on the front page of the website.

CiviCRM does not have a feature that support this. You'll need to write some code to make it happen

if you do so, please publish your code so others can benefit

Thanks for the answer Donald. Unfortunately, much as I would like to be..., I'm not a code writer. Maybe one day.

cheers, john
